Volk gt7

Hey I just got these rims from F1 motorsport and they messed the order up again and gave me g35 coupe rims! I tried to talk to them but they refused to accept their mistake. They keep telling me that I asked for a coupe. Why the F**k would I ask for a coupe if I have a sedan! They also messed up and wrote 04 g35 coupe. Now I wanna say never go to F1 because they suck and this isn't the first time they messed up!

So now I guess I have to sell these on my own because they don't fit my car. PM me an acceptable offer.

The sizes are Front: 19x8.5in Offset +23 Rear: 19x10.5 Offset +24

I think you can make those fit. 225/40 f and 245/40 rear.

You are correct, they will fit with stretched tires and lots of neg camber. Heyitsalex is running the below setup:

Volk GT-F
F: 19x9.5 +17 225/40/19
R: 19x10.5 +24 245/40/19

That looks like a crazy setup but I wouldn't want as much camber on my rear because I'll be changing tires every 2 months lol.

And no bro I had those painted myself.

Im gonna go to F1 again tomorrow and I hope they decide on doing something. But I am considering to move to 9.5 in the front and 10 in the rear

I think it'll be hard returning those since you already had them painted. Nice rims though. Good luck with your situation.

OP, you don't have an email or an invoice from F1 confirming your order?

WORK Wheels manufactured and sent me wheels with different specs than what I had ordered, but I had an invoice from their retailer RavSpec that confirmed my ordered. RavSpec firmly stood behind me throughout the ordeal and I eventually got the wheels I wanted.

^^^ just take your invoice, but before you do, make a copy of it. You dont want them to get it and for them to "lose" it

Alex's car looks absolutely nuts, as does yours.

Dude, I completely understand your frustration. I also had wheel issues when I ordered mine and the seller was a real pain to get hold of after the money was in their hands. They're now a banned sponsor, but it took 3 months of pain and suffering to finally protect others from the same issues.

I'm not sure what your options are here. You would have had a much better chance of winning this battle if you hadn't custom painted them first. Didn't you take them out and look at them first?
I understand the excitement of new wheels, but I wish you had caught this error before having them modified.

Good luck with the outcome.

That's a pretty awesome b-day present... even if they don't fit.
My brother got me a $25- gift card for Dunkin Donuts.
